In just 18 days, millions of people
around the world will STAND UP and SPEAK OUT against poverty and inequality and
for the Millennium Development Goals.
Get Involved Now at www.StandAgainstPoverty.org
On October 16th and 17th we want you to
join millions of other people as we tell world leaders that their promises to
end poverty and inequality must be kept. Last year more than 23 million people
took part and set a new Guinness World Record. This year we want you to help
break this record so the message rings even louder.
To make the biggest political impact we need energetic and
committed people to organise events in communities, schools, workplaces and
just about anywhere where people gather. Anyone can organize an event. There
are no 'experts' needed, just creative, concerned people like you who want to
take a stand against poverty.
